Dutch girl working from 240 to 150 lbs!

Don't get discouraged. You are obviously putting a lot of effort into your weight loss. The scale may not have gone down like you would have liked but you have made great strides in your journey. #1 -- you have recognized some of your weaknesses. That's a very important step! You gotta keep working towards your goals as frustrating as it may get at times.
 
Hi again folks! Back from holiday :)

The best thing about a backpacking holiday is that you have to schlep all your stuff around with you...hence you lose weight! But of course I wasn't paying attention at all, plus I stayed with some nice friends who felt sorry for my bout of camping in the rain and expressed their sympathy through homecooked meals heavy on potatoes!

So...I asked a friend who's losing weight like mad without exercising about her secret: she eats maximum 20 grams of fat A DAY...which really isn't a lot. Now I HAVE to exercise or I get cranky, plus, my back starts hurting so bad I don't even want to get up in the morning...one hour of weight training and presto! I am a happy kitty again :)

Score today:
108 kilos (238 pounds)

Goal for today:
go the the gym again and shake that booty!

Thanks for the support guys...I feel like I'm never gonna get there.
 
Yesterday's goal: go to the gym....MADE IT

Today's weight: 107.4 kilos! (o yeah, I'm a loser!)

Today's goal: no more than 1500 calories (yesterday I had only a 1000 or so, and I still wasn't hungry!)
 
@ Blancita - I spent over two glorious weeks on the fabulously wet and green Faroe Islands...somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic between Iceland and Scotland :)

Check it out, this place is fabulous:

It was a LOT of fun...seeing friends, drinking lotsof vodka (no fat LOL) and eating hehe...whale! Yes you heard it right :) And it was damn good too! Can't wait till next year...
 
This morning's score: 106.3 kilos (235 lbs)

Today's goal: behave tonight...I'm going out with friends and will have to stick with 1 glass of wine and lots of tonic while they get wasted on beer :(
 
Meltdown

So this post has little to do with weight loss, and is decidedly female in character.

First of all it's moontime, which is always a time when I am lethargic and by default sad and tired.

Secondly the MOD (Man Of my Dreams) and I had a long talk yesterday and basically decided that we'll be friends and nothing else. Nothing much has happened at all between us, but he doesn't know what he wants and I hate waiting around for someone to start loving me. So although we get along great and have enormous fun...it won't be romantic, as far as I can see it now.

Sigh.

I feel so fat and unattractive and like a complete failure today...I hope it will pass.

Sorry about this rant, but I needed it off my chest. I hope you guys had a better weekend.
